“Memorial Day Remembrance”

Our Memorial Day Remembrance Sunday is a chance for BES members and guests to remember those who have died. Sharing memories can inspire us, warm our hearts, and ease the pain of loss. Whether we are thinking of loved ones, historical heroes no longer with us, or those who died in military service to our nation, we are left to honor these precious parts of our lives by bringing out their best. It is up to each of us to make the most of our memories, and today we do so as a community.

During the program members and guests are invited to place a flower, provided by BES, into a vase in memory of someone (a relative, friend, mentor, or hero). They may share a few words about this person or simply place a flower in the vase silently.

Programming Note: This program will be shorter than usual, ending at about 11:30 am without a Q&A period so that members can join our Memorial Weekend picnic.

The Baltimore Ethical Society is a humanist congregation. We focus on human lives and relationships and explore what it means to live ethically as individuals, family members, and participants in the larger community. We have no creeds and no doctrines, but we are united by our belief in the worth and dignity of each individual and our commitment to working together to create a more just, humane, and peaceful world.
